Control Hangar Through
value engineering, this long span, high roof project,
originally designed as a cast in situ structure, was
re-designed and constructed with a precast, segmented
folded plate arch system. This resulted in 55% less
concrete and 40% less reinforcing steel quantities
than the original design. The structure was designed
to withstand Seismic Zone 3 forces and a wind speed
of 69.3 meters per second (155 mph). By precasting,
considerable cost savings also resulted from the elimination
of high elevated formwork and in situ concrete activity.

Intermediate
Caisson, Dry Dock No. 1
Pearl Harbor Navy Base, Honolulu, Hawaii
Design
of an intermediate caisson to allow simultaneous independent
dry docking operations of smaller ships and submarines
within the existing 305 meter long Dry Dock No. 1.
This required the construction of a new keyway to
anchor a floating caisson dividing the dock into two
independent operating sections. New pump facilities
and water diversion tunnels were also required to
effectuate independent operations. |
